Weighing only 2 ounces and rated for up to 100,000 gallons, it’s engineered for versatile use with pouches, bottles, hydration packs, or as a straw. Its durable design includes a backflush plunger to maintain peak performance, making it the ultimate must-have for hiking, camping, travel, and emergency preparedness. ## Description The Sawyer MINI Water Filtration System is a lightweight, portable water filter designed for hiking, camping, travel, and emergency preparedness. This squeeze water filter removes 99.99999% of bacteria such as Salmonella, Cholera, and E. coli, 99.9999% of protozoa including Giardia and Cryptosporidium, and 100% of microplastics, providing safe, clean drinking water from lakes, rivers, streams, and faucets worldwide. The filter uses 0.1 micron absolute filtration, meaning no pore is larger than 0.1 microns, which physically blocks harmful contaminants while allowing clean water to pass through. Performance is verified by independent laboratory testing, including Hydreion, LLC (Microbiological Report S05-03) and certified labs Aquadiagnostics Laboratories and Envirotek Laboratories (S1–2512B-12512C; S3–12514-12514A). At the core of the Sawyer MINI is a hollow fiber membrane system made of thousands of tiny tube-like fibers. As water is pushed through these fibers, bacteria, protozoa, cysts, and microplastics are trapped on the outside walls while clean water flows through the center. These hollow fiber membranes are engineered with thicker walls and a smaller inner diameter, making them up to 75% stronger than standard membranes, as tested by the Clean Water Institute of Calvin University (July 2018). This durable construction allows aggressive backwashing to restore up to 98% of the original flow rate, extending the life of the filter up to 100,000 gallons with no cartridges to replace. The included 16 ounce standard pouch is collapsible, reusable, pack down small. Fill directly from lakes, rivers, and streams, even in shallow water sources. Made from soft polyethylene material, the pouch is both lightweight and rugged for repeated outdoor use. Paired with the Sawyer Mini filter, it creates a compact, all-in-one hydration solution—simply fill the pouch, attach the filter, and drink directly or squeeze filtered water into another container for convenient, on-the-go use. You can also screw the filter directly onto most standard 28mm plastic water bottles, use it in-line, or as a straw filter with the included straw accessory. This portable water filter is compact, lightweight, and ideal for backpacking, survival kits, and international travel. For safety and quality assurance, every Sawyer Mini filter is individually tested three times during manufacturing—once after fiber construction and twice after final assembly—to ensure no harmful pathogens can pass through the sealed system or internal O-rings. The fully enclosed fiber design also protects against damage that could compromise filtration performance. Sawyer Products has been a trusted leader in water filtration since 1984, providing advanced solutions for clean drinking water worldwide and supporting global humanitarian efforts to expand access to safe water. Review: Essential Backpacking Gear - UPDATE: So I recently added the CNOC Vecto 2L bladder to this rig and got rid of my Survivor collapsible canteens. I don't think I'll be going back. The Vecto has a large opening to fill, and a 28mm bottle cap to dispense. The Mini screws on perfectly and now I can filter 2L at a time with no issues. Loving this. I also have gotten rid of all my Nalgenes from my backpacking/camping setup. I use them for the office now. I have replaced them with Smartwater bottles. The SW bottles weight less than 2 ounces each, cost $1-2 each and fit the Mini. I have also found I can get two 32 oz SW bottles into a single water bottle pocket on my pack. That means I can either carry 4 liters of water without affecting my internal storage. I have come to really value that decision. When a SW bottle wears out or breaks, I can replace it at pretty much any grocery store for less than $2. ORIGINAL REVIEW (May, 2017): Did some back country camping this past weekend and took the Sawyer Mini out with me for the first time. Reviews on it were good and I was looking for ways to cut down on weight and footprint on my old filter system (a pump). The mini is excellent. I've seen a few reviews complaining about the bag it comes with and the time it takes to squeeze "x" amount of water through it. All I have to say is, yes the bag is too small. 16 oz is kind of lame. The quality of the bag? Seems decent enough. I'll end up replacing it anyway with a pair of Survivor Filter collapsible canteens (32 oz each). As far as the filter goes, I tried it on just some regular old tap water to function test it and get familiar before taking it out. I filtered two liters of water through it (2 Nalgenes) and then back flushed it. I was shocked to see the brown much it filtered out of the tap water! I may get a second on and just screw it onto a SmartWater bottle for drinking at work! The system was easy to use. I don't know what kind of rush others are in when backpacking, but I'm not. I move at my pace and take my time. i'm not in a race when I'm backpacking or camping. I don't mind taking a couple minutes to filter some clean drinking/cooking water. The Sawyer Mini works great. I have zero complaints. I appreciate that it comes with the syringe to back flush it and keep it working well. The 16 oz bag is too small, but it works, and unless you're Hulking out on the thing, it should last just fine. That's one piece I'll upgrade, but the filter alone is well worth the cost of the set. Review: Small, great flow, cheap, safe - this is a perfect product - Wow. I've been hiking the Appalachian trail solo as out-and-back day hikes this year. Over the summer, I started taking 2 water bottles with me for my 12-mile and longer hikes. And I would refill them, unfiltered, from water sources along the trail. My brother pointed out that I as certifiably insane to do such a thing. After some thought, I decided to agree with him. After some searching, I ended with this setup. I wanted something I could take with me that was ultra-light and ultra-small. I usually have my iphone and some trail mix in one pocket of my running shorts, a water bottle in my hand, some backup carbs on the other pocket, ID and cash in the back pocket. That's it. While it's reasonable to do 5 miles this way, or even 8 if you have water at your destination, 12-15 miles requires a refill. And this is how you refill. The filter is tiny, and if you're using clear water from a moving stream or spring, the flow is pretty fast. As fast as my Katadyn hiker filter that I've had for years. After a few trips with this baby, I'm hooked. A couple tips and things I've learned: 1) You're carrying 2 water bottles anyway - one to fill from a water source, and one to drink from. I fill the clean bottle with filtered water, and fill the other bottle with unfiltered water. 2) The bags are unreliable. I haven't had one break yet, but it's a common thing. So don't rely on 1. Bring a backup. Or, 3) Use another bottle with a cap that fits. The package says the filter fits on most water bottles. I have not found that to be the case with 2 different house brands of water bottles. I did find that the house brand 0-calorie clear soda (it comes in peach, blackberry, etc, you know what I mean) bottles did fit. So for 68 cents, I have an unfiltered bottle I can use. I think that soda bottles will reliably fit, but that's just a guess. 4) lastly, because the equipment is so small and light, it is easy to lose. I started off on a 15-mile hike last week and 3 miles in discovered that my water bag was gone. I assumed I had left it in the car accidentally or it had dropped on the trail. I went ahead and did the hike anyway, refilling at a clear spring, right at the source, without filtering. I found the bag on the side of the trail on my way back. So use a zipper pocket, bundle the items to something bigger with a rubber band, do something to protect yourself. I have not used this for a camping trip yet, but I would not hesitate to do so. It's amazing. I would make sure to take the backwash plunger with me if I was backpacking, though. I love this system - it simply can't be beat. ## Features - Ideal for outdoor recreation, hiking, camping, scouting, domestic and International travel, and emergency preparedness - High-performance 0.1 micron absolute inline filter fits in the palm of your hand and weighs just 2 ounces; 100% of MINI units individually tested three times to performance standards by Sawyer - Attaches to included drinking pouch, standard 28 mm disposable water bottles, hydration packs, or use the straw to drink directly from your water source - Removes 99.99999% of all bacteria (Salmonella, Cholera, and E. coli); removes 99.9999% of all protozoa (such as Giardia and Cryptosporidium); also removes 100% of microplastics - Filter rated up to 100,000 gallons; includes one Sawyer MINI filter, 16-ounce reusable squeeze pouch, 7-inch drinking straw, and cleaning plunger ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B00TOX6UM6 | | Best Sellers Rank | #692 in Sports & Outdoors ( See Top 100 in Sports & Outdoors ) #4 in Camping & Hiking Water Filters | | Brand | Sawyer | | Brand Name | Sawyer | | Capacity | 0.5 liters | | Container Type | Pouch | | Customer Reviews | 4.7 out of 5 stars 41,276 Reviews | | Global Trade Identification Number | 00050716001051 | | Included Components | One MINI filter, one 16-ounce pouch, one drinking straw, one cleaning plunger | | Installation Type | No e | | Item Dimensions L x W x H | 4"L x 3"W x 8"H | | Item Type Name | Water Filter | | Item Weight | 45 g | | Manufacturer | Sawyer Products | | Material | Blend | | Material Type | Blend | | Model Name | MINI Water Filter | | Model Number | SP105-Mini | | Other Special Features of the Product | Back Flush plunger included for longer life | | Part Number | SP105 | | Power Source | Manual Operation | | Product Dimensions | 4"L x 3"W x 8"H | | Purification Method | Hollow Fiber Membrane | | Special Feature | Back Flush plunger included for longer life | | Supported Water TDS Level Maximum (PPM) | 1500 | | UPC | 747638164468 050716001051 776192878269 | | Warranty Description | Rated up to 100,000 gallons by manufacturer | ## Product Details - **Brand:** Sawyer - **Capacity:** 0.5 liters - **Included Components:** One MINI filter, one 16-ounce pouch, one drinking straw, one cleaning plunger - **Installation Type:** No e - **Material:** Blend - **Package Information:** Pouch - **Power Source:** Manual Operation - **Product Dimensions:** 4"L x 3"W x 8"H - **Purification Method:** Hollow Fiber Membrane - **Special Feature:** Back Flush plunger included for longer life ## Images ![Sawyer Products Mini Water Filtration System - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71almoL0-mL.jpg) ![Sawyer Products Mini Water Filtration System - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71rmzEYoRkL.jpg) ![Sawyer Products Mini Water Filtration System - Image 3](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/41LNTGrjM8L.jpg) ![Sawyer Products Mini Water Filtration System - Image 4](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/8100XaHxn4L.jpg) ![Sawyer Products Mini Water Filtration System - Image 5](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/8123+HYA7kL.jpg) ## Available Options This product comes in different **Color, Size, Style** options. ## Questions & Answers **Q: What stops (contaminated) water on the outside of the collection bag from dripping into your clean bottle? All pics show bag above clean bottle** A: MikeMy Sawyer Water Filtration kit as pictured included gaskets that, when the bottle is tightened correctly prevents any contaminated water from entering your clean water container. I have several of these, one in each bug out bag and they are an excellent item. Very reliable. I have even use these on less-than-desirable water sources with zero problems multiple times. **Q: is there a difference in the colors?** A: No, the color does not mean anything. Although it is helpful if you will be in a group of hikers carrying their own filters, as it helps to identify which filter belongs to which person. But the color does not mean anything. **Q: Could scouts use this esaily and also could you turn this into a gravity filter** A: It is very easy to use. Just one precaution, Use care not to contaminate the filter like all water filters.It will screw onto any water/soda bottle and comes with a 1 liter bag. I force the water through myself, but you can gravity feed with some rigging. I love mine and is very small for what it can do. If you are using lake or river water in Florida, I would still boil or treat the water to be sure. If you are up in the mountains and have fast moving stream, I would have no problem drink without treating/boiling. **Q: If I add Propel or Gatorade powder to the water will the filter take out all of electrolyte benefits?** A: I'm not sure. However, you can use the gravity feed bag and put the clean water in a container then add the powder. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Essential Backpacking Gear *by G***D on May 9, 2017* UPDATE: So I recently added the CNOC Vecto 2L bladder to this rig and got rid of my Survivor collapsible canteens.

Sawyer makes an EXCELLENT unit that won't break the bank. I bought this filter a few months ago[ to add to a survival/camp pack and have since filtered about 40 liters of water through it. This filter cleans anything from questionable garden hose water to murky lake water into perfectly clear and crisp to the taste drinking water. At first, I was skeptical of course. Who would think that you can turn brown, dirty water into clean, perfectly safe water with just such a small, affordable filter? But rest assured, this filter is a powerhouse and continues to go above and beyond. One tip I have for easier and more bulk filtration is to pick up a Platypus Plastic 2L Water Bag (Link below). It's less than $10 just like the bottle you get with the filter except it allows you to filter 70oz rather than 16oz. I also got a grommet kit from a local craft store and placed 2 grommets in the corner of the bag in the seam. I then ran a 1 foot section of para-cord through the grommets which allowed me to hang the bottle on a tree branch or any other convenient location. This way you can let gravity do the work and continue on with your camp chores. I was able to filter 2 liters of water this way in around 10 minutes. One word of caution: Sawyer claims that you can filter 1,000,000 gallons of water through this filter (you're probably more likely to lose the filter before you get to that point) regardless, cleaning is a must. It will greatly extend the life and quality of your filter and water. After every filtration session I recommend flushing the filter with clean water using he provided syringe. Don't be afraid to really shoot the water in there, you're only helping your filter. All in all this filter was a GREAT buy. I don't think you can find a better filter, especially one under the $100 mark! http://www.amazon.com/Platypus-Platy-Bottle/dp/B002NZS142 ## Frequently Bought Together - Sawyer Products Mini Water Filtration System - Sawyer Products SP657 Premium Permethrin Insect Repellent for Clothing, Gear & Tents, Trigger Spray, 24-Ounce - Squeeze Water Filtration System --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.ph/products/13595659-sawyer-products-mini-water-filtration-system](https://www.desertcart.ph/products/13595659-sawyer-products-mini-water-filtration-system) --- *Product available on Desertcart Philippines* *Store origin: PH* *Last updated: 2026-08-05*
